Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • the effect of the proposals on the character and appearance of the locally listed building and wider area, with specific regard to Vauxhall Conservation Area
  • the living conditions of the occupants of 82 Bonnington Square, with specific regard to privacy and outlook

What decided it

The proposal would neither preserve nor enhance the character or appearance of the Conservation Area and would adversely affect the living conditions of neighbouring occupants, with no public benefits to outweigh the identified harms.

Framework references: 213, 215
